The default configuration of SLiM before 1.3.2 places ./ (dot slash) at the beginning of the default_path option, which might allow local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse program in the current working directory, related to slim.conf and cfg.cpp.

Security readout for executives and security teams

SLiM display manager versions before 1.3.2 used an unsafe default search path. A local user could potentially influence which program gets run by placing an impostor program where SLiM looks first, leading to privilege gain. This is a legacy, local-access issue, not a remotely exploitable internet-facing flaw based on the provided sources. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Linux systems using SLiM before 1.3.2, or systems retaining the vulnerable default_path setting. The source bundle does not identify affected distributions, package names, or supported platforms. Treat this as a moderate legacy endpoint risk. Prioritize remediation where SLiM runs on shared workstations, kiosks, labs, or systems with untrusted local users. It is less urgent for servers without SLiM or local interactive users. Mitigation focus: Upgrade SLiM to version 1.3.2 or a vendor-supported fixed package.; Remove "./" from the beginning of SLiM default_path settings.; Review distro or vendor advisories for backported fixes..
